Grilled Bruschetta with Teleme, Honey, and Figs

This elegant fig and cheese bruschetta is a sophisticated vegetarian starter that celebrates the contrasting flavours of the Mediterranean. By grilling the crusty country-style bread over charcoal or gas, you achieve a wonderful smoky depth that pairs beautifully with the creamy, melted Teleme or Havarti cheese. The addition of fresh, jammy figs provides a natural sweetness that cuts through the rich cheese for a perfectly balanced bite.

Ideal for summer garden parties or as a light alfresco lunch, this dish is elevated by a final drizzle of dark, fragrant forest honey. The combination of warm bread, gooey cheese, and cool fruit makes it an effortless yet impressive choice for entertaining. Serve these bite-sized toasts immediately while the cheese is still bubbling for the best possible texture and flavour.

Ingredients for Grilled Bruschetta with Teleme, Honey, and Figs

  • 8 5 x 3 x 1/2-inch slices crusty country-style bread

  • Aceite de oliva

  • 30g piece ripe Teleme cheese or Havarti cheese, cut into 8 slices

  • 8 ripe fresh figs, stemmed, quartered lengthwise

  • Dark full-flavoured honey (such as forest honey)

Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Brush both sides of bread with oil. Place bread slices directly on 1 side of grill rack; place sheet of foil large enough to hold bread slices on other side of grill rack. Grill bread until grill marks appear on bottom, about 3 minutes. Turn bread slices over and place bread, grilled side down, on foil. Place 1 cheese slice atop each bread slice; close barbecue and grill bread until cheese melts, about 3 minutes. Transfer bread to work surface; cut each slice into 4 pieces. Top each piece with fig slice. Drizzle lightly with honey and sprinkle lightly with freshly ground black pepper. Transfer to platter and serve.
